How & Why To Put Links In Your Blogger Post Title

How To Put Links In Your Blogger Post Title


Well this will be short and sweet because the process is extremely simple. You simply put a link in the title. You use the html link format. Here is an example using the title of this article.

That is exactly what you would put in your title field for your post. What you would end up with when you publish the post would look like this.

How & Why To Put Links In Your Blogger Post Title

The only difference would be that the words you don't have the link to would still link to the articles permanent URL. So you would have a title where part of it links to the articles permanent URL the other part you defined when you entered the title would link to the URL you chose.

Why Put Links In Your Blogger Post Title


Now the question is why would you do this? Now I wouldn't do this for every title but it can be an effective SEO tool and also good from an affiliate marketing perspective. Remember your article titles on your main page are H2 tagged, and should be H1 on your post permalink page, but I will go into how to make your post title an H1 tag on it's permalink page in another article. Google and most other search engines put great emphasis on the H1 tag as pretty much the most important part of the page. That is why placing a relevant properly key worded link in your post title can really help what you are linking to in search ranking. Think of this as more of an internal linking strategy than an external one. In other words say you have an article on basket weaving and you happen to mention basket or weaving in another post title. You could link from basket or weaving or both to the article you are wanting to boost.

Another internal link SEO strategy is to actually publish the article and then go back and insert a link back to the article using the most important keyword from the title. In this strategy all of the words in the title would then still link back to the article, but you would in effect have two links to the same article in the same title. That is actually how this articles title is set up.

What the F Does the C Stand 4

I know all of you have been waiting with baited breathe for my first contest. Well we are taking the plunge together. Here is the chance for all of you to win something for doing almost nothing. Hopefully you won't think this Contest is full of Sh-t . For many many years I have had the "nickname," I guess you could call it, of Cman. Here lately, probably due in part to #10 in my 10 Reasons John Chow Probably Thinks This Blog Is About Him article, I have been getting asked more and more what the C in Cman stands for. Herein lays the focus of this contest. For the person who can guess what the C in Cman stands for I will give them $100. If multiple people guess correctly the winner will be chosen by random drawing from among the correct entries. If no one guesses correctly I will randomly pick from all entries and will award the winner of the losers $20. Clarification: 1. In the words of Juan Sanchez Villa-Lobos Ramirez, "There can be only One." Winner that is. E

The Stripping Aristologist Contest Winner

Well as you can see from the above screen capture the winning entry is #5. Heading over to the contest post and looking through the comments and the trackbacks I found that Anton of Link Right Contests was entry #5 with his guess of Julia Child. The actual answer was incorrect so he won the $50 but not the bonus prize. I was a bit generous to 2 entries that commented and entered but did not give the link. I had to search their blog to find the answer. There were several that commented and gave a link to their blog but I could not find a post about the contest or any links back to this blog. Anywho....Congrats to Anton and thank you all so much for reading and taking the time to interact with this blog and really make it what it is. Oh and Anton you might want to consider some kind of Contact Me link for your blog. Other than trackback to your post and a comment I have no way to contact you regarding your winning entry. Having a Contact Me is one of the first things any blogger should
